    Looking For Some Insight On An NBA Game Tonight

    Sacramento laying 3.5 at New Orleans. Don't make sense. I generally give the home team 4-5 extra points. Are you telling me the Kings are 8 points better on neutral court, 13 better at home.....?!! It's one of those games where I'm tempted to take Sacto figuring something is amiss.

    Anthony Davis is doubtful. Books dont give any respect to pelicans without him.

    Kings offense has been rolling for a couple weeks now. They should cover here if Davis doesn't play.

    Thanks, boys. Sacto is very unpredictable to me but I think I'll make a small play on them tonight, trusting the oddsmaker.

    Anthony Davis and Tyreke Evans both out vs. Kings

    Injuries a factor here for sure. Also, each team ends up developing their own specific home advantage and, sometimes, disadvantage.

    Getting more specific instead of the generalization may help to sharpen your numbers a bit.

    Pure paper assessment I don't see how the Kings lose. But they always seem to find a way to lose the ones they should win this year, I'd beat my meat instead of bet this game personally

    Linesmakers are good, but they can't predict outcomes. After all, NO won 5 of their last 7. And they can't predict Ryan Anderson going for 30 in the first half or my Pellies dropping 37 in the first Q. Alvin Gentry's up-tempo system finally starting to catch on hopefully
